Walking to pick up the young patient, Shim Youhuan and Cao Yong walked side by side. It was a chance for the senior brothers, who didnât work at the same hospital, to chat a bit.
"You tell Yu Xuexian, he doesnât need to call me anymore. He himself is a doctor too; I need to respect the patientâs privacy. What am I supposed to say to him?" Shim Youhuan complained, wanting Cao Yong to relay the message.
The other day, after somehow getting his phone number, Yu Xuexian called directly, asking him to provide Teacher Luâs medical records.
This Senior Brother Shimâs two sentences inadvertently revealed a secret: itâs very likely that this person took over Teacher Luâs interventional surgery.
Cao Yong thought about how to tell Yu Xuexian later.
Following the two senior brothers from behind was Xie Wanying, recalling what Senior Kang had mentioned.
Senior Brother Yu was particularly anxious about Teacher Lu because he lost his mother at a young age. When his father was busy with work, Teacher Lu, as a neighbor, often invited him over for meals and took care of him. To Senior Brother Yu, Teacher Lu was like a mother or grandmother figure, and the feelings were very deep. Even Teacher Lu herself said that Senior Brother Yu was like another little son to her.
"Canât you say something? Arenât you the most daring when it comes to speaking, Cao Yong?" Seeing him remain silent, Shim Youhuan teased him.
Being daring doesnât mean saying whatever, whenever. Cao Yong gave this senior brother a meaningful smile: "Why donât you clarify a bit more, so I can explain and convince him."
Shim Youhuan scanned his face, not falling for it: "Are you trying to pry information out of me?"
Cao Yong waved his hand: No, no. Wouldnât dare, wouldnât dare.
As a doctor, Cao Yong also respects patient privacy. He wonât ask questions he shouldnât ask.
"So, do you think heâs a doctor?" Shim Youhuan sharply criticized Yu Shidi, who wasnât present.
"In this matter, heâs really not acting like a doctor." Cao Yong replied to Shim Youhuan, speaking ambiguously.
Likewise, as a doctor, you, Shim Youhuan, should be able to detect such signs. Canât say, but you can comfort people a little. They arenât even acting as a doctor anymore, just as Teacher Luâs godson asking questions.
Shim Youhuan, not expecting to be criticized in return, took a deep breath and said, "Alright. Now that weâre at different hospitals, youâre colleagues with him and not with me, so you side with him."
"Iâm not taking any sides on this." Cao Yong refused to admit.
"Yingying, you be the judge, whoâs right and whoâs wrong." Shim Youhuan turned his head and asked the junior sister following quietly behind. He thought this junior sister was extremely smart, why hadnât she said anything, sitting like a mute.
How could Xie Wanying dare to casually interject when Senior Brothers were talking? Besides, this kind of issue is hard to say whoâs right or wrong.
"Are you afraid of Senior Brother Yu and Senior Cao? Too scared to speak?"
This Senior Brother Shim, not afraid of stirring up trouble, seemed to enjoy creating chaos and fanning the flames.
Xie Wanying frankly told Senior Brother Shim: "If youâve done something wrong, you would be afraid; if you havenât done anything wrong, you wonât be afraid."
Oh dear, what kind of answer was this from a junior sister, even more straightforward than a three-year-old. In Shim Youhuanâs eyes, there were only two characters of astonishment.
Cao Yong laughed silently.
The gurney from the ambulance was pulled over, and everyone prepared to transfer Xiao Sisi onto it to be sent to the ambulance. Shim Youhuan hung a stethoscope around his neck to listen to the heart and lungs of the young patient, listening intently to what other doctors said about previous rescue measures. At this point, there was no mischievous or humorous expression on his face, as he listened intently to the childâs breathing and asked, "Director Zhang, thereâs blood in there, right?"
